Description

In this final edition of Moyers & Company, Bill speaks with legal scholar and environmentalist Mary Christina Wood about a new legal framework against global warming. Called atmospheric trust litigation, it takes the fate of the Earth into the courts, arguing that the planet’s atmosphere – its air, water, land, plants and animals — are the responsibility of government, held in its trust to insure the survival of all generations to come.
